ARM: MPU faults should indicate faulting memory address

[andrewboie]

MPU faults print something like this:

�***** MPU FAULT *****
  Executing thread ID (thread): 0x20002a00
  Faulting instruction address:  0x57a7150c
  Instruction Access Violation
Fatal fault in thread 0x20002a00! Aborting.

We need it to show the memory address which was being accessed to trigger the fault which will greatly assist with debugging issues.

@andrewboie I believe they do, already.

In brief: in ARMv7-M and ARMv8-M the CPU indicates the faulting address only in case of data access violation (DACCVIOL). We already support this. But there is nothing we can do for IACCVIOL.

@agross-linaro , could you confirm this?

[andrewboie]

in that case we can close this

[ioannisg]

that's my opinion, at least.
